Kontrola Sądowa Decyzji Prezesa Urzędu Komunikacji Elektronicznej, Mateusz Chołodecki

Monografie CARS/CARS Monographs

Przedmiotem rozważań książki autorstwa dr. Mateusza Chołodeckiego jest kompleksowe przedstawienie modelu kontroli sądowej decyzji wydawanych przez Prezesa Urzędu Komunikacji Elektronicznej (UKE). Model ten przewiduje, że kontrolę sądową decyzji wydawanych przez Prezesa UKE sprawują sądy administracyjne. Jednakże, od części decyzji tego organu (określonych enumeratywnie w art. 206 ust. 2, 2a i 2b Pr. tel.) przysługuje odwołanie do sądu powszechnego (Sądu Okręgowego w Warszawie – Sądu Ochrony Konkurencji i Konsumentów). Oba tryby kontroli sądowej różnią się od siebie zasadniczo. W związku z tym, w pracy autor analizuje podstawy prawne tego modelu w celu ustalenia, czy jest on jednorodny oraz na czym polegają …

The Incredible Shrinking Antitrust Law And The Antitrust Gap, C. Paul Rogers Iii.

Faculty Journal Articles and Book Chapters

Substantive antitrust law has dramatically shrunk. The shrinkage, which began in the 1970s with the transition from the Warren Court to the Burger and then Rehnquist Courts, has accelerated in the last decade. Much of the shrinkage has to do with the expansion of the rule of reason and its displacement of per se rules. The Supreme Court has gone so far as to state that it "presumptively" applies the rule of reason while per se illegality is limited to a "narrow category of activity." This article considers the impact of modem antitrust law on the gap that is the …

Exiting The Euro, Frederick V. Perry, Wendy Gelman

Richmond Journal of Global Law & Business

The Crisis in the Euro Zone threatens to break up the Euro and perhaps derail the European Union itself. Many argue that a Member State exiting the Euro would be not only unthinkable, but also a practical impossibility, given the status of the “constitutionality” of European law, the treaties forming the European Union and the Euro, and customary European law. Europeans have been, for centuries, very creative in forging economic and trading alliances—some that appeared to be political alliances and even elementary union. They have also, on more than one occasion, attempted to confect monetary stability. Some of these attempts …

A Concise History Of Corporate Mergers And The Antitrust Laws In The United States, C. Paul Rogers Iii

Faculty Journal Articles and Book Chapters

American merger control law today is governed primarily by regulators and not courts, focusing on consumer welfare and efficiency. This was not always the case though, and the author traces the development of this area of law from its nascent beginnings with the Sherman Act to the era of private enforcement witnessed today. As the Indian economy continues to expand,mergers and acquisitions have become frequent bringing with them difficult questions of anti-competitive behaviour. A study of the American experience, it is argued, would provide valuable insight in enforcing the rather untested anti-merger provisions in the Competition Act of India.

Personal Jurisdiction And Choice Of Law In The Cloud, Damon C. Andrews, John M. Newman

Articles

Cloud computing has revolutionized how society interacts with, and via, technology. Though some early detractors criticized the "cloud" as being nothing more than an empty industry buzzword, we contend that by dovetailing communications and calculating processes for the first time in history, cloud computing is--both practically and legally-a shift in prevailing paradigms. As a practical matter, the cloud brings with it a previously undreamt-of sense of location independence for both suppliers and consumers. And legally, the shift toward deploying computing ability as a service, rather than as a product, represents an evolution to a contractual foundation for interacting.

Already, substantive …

Self-Replicating Technologies And The Challenge For The Patent And Antitrust Laws, Daryl Lim

Faculty Scholarly Works

Few patented inventions challenge the traditional boundaries of the patent and antitrust laws like those that are capable of multiplying as they are used. These self-replicating technologies are embedded in our food, fortify our vaccines, and form the computer code upon which the information age is based. These inventions create an inherent conflict between patentees and their customers. The conflict arises because every customer could become competitors as the product replicates, potentially making every first sale the patentee's last. They also challenge how we think about fundamental issues of ownership as well as innovation and market competition, and make it …

Antitrust Principles Affecting Franchise Law, Daniel A. Crane

Book Chapters

Antitrust law in the United States intersects with franchise law in a number of complex ways. Falling afoul of antitrust law can be costly-antitrust violations give rise to treble damages and, in the extreme, even criminal penalties. Further, the antitrust principles governing franchise relationships are in a state of transition. The upshot is that careful attention to emerging antitrust norms is critical for students of franchise law.

Wymiana Informacji Między Konkurentami W Ocenie Organów Ochrony Konkurencji, Antoni Bolecki

Monografie CARS/CARS Monographs

Monografia dr. Antoniego Boleckiego poświęcona jest rekonstrukcji stanowiska organów ochrony konkurencji („OOK”) wyrażanego w sprawach dotyczących wymiany informacji między konkurentami. Autor przeprowadził analizę ponad stu pięćdziesięciu spraw, szeregu wytycznych oraz poglądów wyrażanych przez OOK w kilkunastu jurysdykcjach. Okazuje się, że podejście wszystkich OOK do tej kwestii jest bardzo zbliżone. Drugorzędne różnice występują głównie między USA i UE. Zbliżone podejście poszczególnych OOK pozwoliło na wypracowanie uniwersalnego modelu służącego do oceny tego, kiedy w ocenie OOK wymiana jest dozwolona, a kiedy zakazana. W ocenie autora może on z powodzeniem być wykorzystywany w Polsce i w UE.

Główną przyczyną, dla której OOK postrzegają …

The Lawyer With The Adr Tattoo, Jennifer W. Reynolds

Cardozo Journal of Conflict Resolution

This Article considers whether ADR presents a branding problem for legal professionals and, if so, how those professionals can reclaim the brand in productive, career-affirming ways. Whether one should self-identify as proponent, practitioner, or scholar of alternative practices implicates broad tensions not only around assimilating with integrity into any longstanding change-resistant profession, but also around the shortcomings of the adversarial system and the legitimacy of ADR.

Hong Kong's Economic Freedom And Income Inequality, Emmett Choy

CMC Senior Theses

Hong Kong is considered to be the most economically free country in the world, but also has the highest amount of income inequality of any developed country. The Hong Kong government is able to sustain laissez faire policies due to its monopoly on land supply. Maintaining high property values allows the government to maximize revenue from property tax, which acts as a hidden tax. A major contributor to income inequality is the formation of oligopolies in Hong Kong that creates an anticompetitive environment. The interests of the government and oligarchs are aligned as both obtain significant portions of revenue from …

Identifying A Maverick: When Antitrust Law Should Protect A Low-Cost Competitor, Taylor M. Owings

Vanderbilt Law Review

Shortly after taking office, President Barack Obama announced that his Administration would pursue a policy of vigorous antitrust enforcement in order to ensure healthy competition in the economy.' In two of the highest-profile antitrust cases that have followed, the United States Department of Justice ("DOJ") sought to block two proposed mergers in which the target companies were low-cost competitors in their industries. The DOJ won a judgment in November 2011 that blocked retail-tax giant H&R Block from acquiring 2nd Story Software, maker of the low-cost digital tax- preparation program TaxACT. A month later, the DOJ scored another "victory" when AT&T …
